Kazan Icon of the Mother of God - one of the most revered icons in Russia. It was uncovered in 1579 in Kazan, where she took the name. According to the testimony of the Patriarch Hermogenes, who at that time served as a priest in Kazan, after the great fire, which occurred in the city, the 9-year-old girl Matrona appeared in a dream-Pure, which is ordered to find her way in the ruins left after the fire.
The icon was soon found in the place, which indicated the Mother of God. Since then, this day - July 8, 1579, is considered a holiday and is celebrated annually on the Orthodox Church. At the site where the convent, and the girl who was the Most Holy Mother of God, became the first nun in it was found the icon was built.
